accordingly.
 The study team member discussed the related
matters of the project.

7. SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESMENT
The study identified the following key social issues
for investigation:
 Loss of private property and other assets (land,
houses and trees) and compensation modalities
for these losses.
 Population displacement.

8.  EQUIPMENT USED FOR
SURVEYING
 Total station
 GPS device
 Staff
 Compass
 Measuring tape
 Hammer
 Communicating Device

9. Road Classification
 As per the NRS 2045, the road project falls on the
category of District Roads.

10.  A Design speed of 30 km/hr is taken for the
design of geometric parameters of the
road.
Design Speed

11.  The Design values are taken as recommended by
NRS 2045 as far as practicable
 The shoulder width is taken as 1 m considering
the site condition and the utility of the road
 Minimum Gradient recommended by NRS (1% for
better drainage) cannot be incorporated
considering the site condition

12. Horizontal Alignment
 The most suitable horizontal alignment was
selected considering the following factors:
 Short (S)
 Easy (E)
 Safe (S)
 Economical (E)
 Minimum radius for the horizontal curve as
recommended by NRS is 12 m. The minimum
radius of 12m is provided at the intersection of
existing road and proposed road.

13.  The extrawidening and transition curves are not
provided owing to low design speed and
simplicity in construction
 A maximum of 5 % super elevation is provided at
each horizontal curve.
 Superelevation is provided by rotation of
pavement about the center line.
 Transition length for super elevation is provided
as 5 m

14.  Summit curves are designed considering stopping
sight distance.
 Valley curves are designed on the basis of night
visibility
 The radius of vertical curve is adopted as large as
possible so that all the factors are satisfied
 The least vertical radius taken in design is 1000 m

15. Cross Section Design
 Cross section is designed providing camber of 4%
on carriageway and 5 % on shoulder
 For embankment the side slope of 1.5H: 1V and
for cut the side slope of 1H: 1V is adopted
 Total pavement thickness of 28 cm is adopted as
per CBR method of design

16.  Gravel is used as the sub-base course
 Otta Seal is used as the surface course

17. Drainage
 Longitudinal drain is provided on the cut slope side of
the road
 The side slope is 1:1 and longitudinal slope is parallel
to the alignment
 Earthen drain is provided from chainage 0+000 to the
chainage of 1+251.35
 Stoned masonry drain of thickness 20 cm is provided
from the chainage of 1+309.82 to chainage 2+027.24

18.  Pipe culverts of 60 cm in diameter and total
length of 7.5m are provided at 12 sections of the
road
 They are provided at the lowest point of the
vertical alignment
 A minimum depth of 60 cm is provided between
the surface of the pavement and the crown of
the pipe
